Die BESTEN Free Walking Tours durch das Kommunistisches Krakau

Our guide Bart is highly knowledgeable, with a degree in history. He mastered the subject and provided detailed and comprehensive information about the entire period of the Second World War and the communist era. It was a lesson in itself; we learned a lot. I recommend the tour with Bart to people who want to receive in-depth and unique content.

Had a fabulous walk with Bart about WW2 and Communism. He’s extremely knowledgeable and delivers a very complex and compelling history in an accessible way. Highly recommended!

This tour is a must if you want to learn about important the war and the sites around the old town that took an important role during the war. The tour guide in an archeologist who is very knowledgeable about the history of the war. The tour is divided by the nazi era and the comunist era. He was so nice and share even personal/family info related to the war. Totally recommended.

Chris was so knowledgeable about Polish history that blows your mind away and he had so many personal stories to share from his grand parents the real stories. He explained to us many complex history events in such detail and with enormous prestigious I couldn’t imagine. I definitely recommend this tour for people who love to hear the real story of the WW2 in Poland.

Bart did a great job of explaining a complicated history in an entertaining way. I highly recommend this tour!

Great tour and great tour guide! A fascinating walk!

A very interesting and informative tour - absolutely recommended!

Excellent guide for a difficult topic!!!

This was our second tour with Bart and was great! Deffinately he is one of the best guides we have met.

If you are in to history then this is a great tour to understand what happened to Poland all throughout the 20th Century. Bart has a deep historical knowledge of this period and he imparted some very interesting stories of smaller, less known stories from the period of Nazi occupation and subsequent communist rule. A great way to give a different insight for your visit to Krakow and Poland generally.

Chris was an amazing guide! Was so knowledgeable and even had personal items from this family which he kindly shared with us! I loved the song he sang at the end, really brought the whole tour together! Thank you Chris for a great day!

Outstanding tour. Chris was excellent, very well-prepared (he is a professional archeologist with deep knowledge in History) and with direct family experience in all the periods. It makes a lot of difference to share direct personal experiences, rather than simple knowledge. I hope this tour to be kept, it is a must for anyone interested in social history. And -without pretending to compare one period with the other- these type of tours should be mandatory for all of us, to keep in mind and in our souls, the terrible effects of tyranny.

Wonderful tour!! Such an interesting and important tour - taking you away from the heart of the tourist areas to learn about the post WW2 history of Krakow. The Nazis, the communists, the wide polish resistance and the fall of communism after the solidarity movement. Bart did an amazing job mixing fact with story, fun with seriousness. Go on this tour!!

We did the Tour with Chris. Defintiely one of the Best Tours we ever did. He Mixed up the BASIC Information with Personal Episoden his relatives experienced Living in the Regimes. We Are heavely recomending this for anybody interesred in 20th Century history.

This was one of the best free walking tours I have been on. A lot of history and personal stories. I learned so much about Poland! Chris did an excellent job with the history of WW 2 and the communism years. I highly recommend this tour.

One of the best freetours we did, and we have done many tours in Italy, Spain, Portugal, Denmark, etc. Chris, besides being a person whose family has lived close to World War II and Communism, has been teaching us things throughout the entire tour that we didn't even know, and also with authentic documents of the reality and what happened during these two periods that marked the history of Krakow and Poland. Highly recommended at 200%, and we hope that this tour continues because both periods are important for the history of the city, country, and the world.

Chris was a great tour guide. He had some authentic first hand documents and books from the times relating to his family members which added an extra special touch to the tour. Would recommend for sure.

Santi nos hizo un tour muy ameno y cargado de mucha información interesante! Fue muy interactivo y fue un placer escucharle. Nos recomendó muchos sitios y resolvió todas nuestras dudas! Tanto mi amiga como yo recomendamos muchísimo este tour!!!

Nos lo pasamos fenomenal con Santiago, uno sabe cuando el free tour gusta porque se pasa el tiempo volando y así fue. 100% recomendable.

Anna es genial!!

Eugene was an excellent guide. He made the complicated and challenging history of Krakow under different regimes interesting and memorable. The tour takes you off the main tourist areas which we loved. It was fascinating to learn more about communism in the city and also about the impact of John Paul II. We thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to learn more of the history of Krakow under different control.

Anya es maravillosa. Conocimiento, diversión y energía!

La guia sabia mucho del tema, me gusto mucho

Chica encantaadora, lo explica genial

10/10 would recommend! Very interesting and different to just doing a standard tour of the city!
